FRND - BEFORE U I DIDN’T EXIST

Music, Original MixMike DooseComment

Everyone’s favorite Koala-loving producer/artist FRND is back again with another deliciously glitchy and catchy pop banger. The title offering from his upcoming second EP, “Before U I Didn’t Exist” follows last month’s “Erase.” It’s what one might call an oddly humanist robotic glitch-pop opus, replete with FRND’s signature sugary vocal hooks, futuristic synths and emotional heart-on-his-sleeve lyrics. The production is so unique and crisp, and the catchiness of the underlying composition just makes this one addictive track. There’s even a RAD anime-style video accompanying the release which follows an odd pair of lovers as they embark on a post-apocalyptic adventure to escape Earth. I won’t spoil the ending, so you’ll have to watch it for yourself HERE. Keep your eyes on FRND because he may just be on the verge of blasting off.

NOAH CYRUS FT. XXXTENTACION - AGAIN (KHAMSIN REMIX)

Music, RemixAlli LindseyComment

The world of music is ever-expanding, ever-changing. The power of the internet, and steady increase for music PR has brought unsuspecting artists together to create genre-blending sounds, and unforeseen yet powerful collaborations. An unsuspecting collaboration indeed, Miley Cyrus' little sister, Noah teamed up with the controversial, highly-talked-about rapper, XXXTENTACION to drop their track, "Again." This unlikely duo's resonance traversed the world to inspire French producer Khamsin to bless "Again" with a near-experimental, glitch-dance treatment. Electrifying, and left-of-center, Khamsin is not one to fade into fads, destined to leave a lasting legacy in the electronic music community, he continuously expands his dexterity and taste into uncharted territory. This flip has spooky aromas, and witchy vibes capitalizing on Cyrus' melancholic vocals. Dark, brooding, and bold Khamsin is setting new standards for music. Volume up. Bass up. Repeat. Thanks, Khamsin.
